Signs of Autumn

Today we went outside to look for signs of Autumn to help us create our Autumn tree paintings.  We discussed:

  • The days start to get colder because of the sunlight being weaker.
  • Leaves start to turn bright colours and fall off the trees.
  • Animals begin storing food for the winter.
  • Many festivals are celebrated and food is harvested.

We had fun looking for these in our outdoor garden.

 Complete on a word document or piece of paper and upload to assignments.  Remember to ‘add work’ and ‘hand-in’.

Complete the number problem (265 + 147) or (67 + 26).  Remember to write the title of the strategy you are using.  You can write directly on the Number Talks sheet below and upload or write on a piece of paper, take a photo and upload it to your assignments.  

You can use the strategies:

  • *Partitioning place value

‘Hit the Button’ on Topmarks.

Good morning P4. I can’t believe we have reached the end of term and this is my last day with you in Primary 4. We have had such a super year and even though we haven’t been together the last few months, you have all worked so hard with your home learning and should be very proud of yourselves. Mrs Green and I think you have done a wonderful job and I look forward to when we are all back together in August.

There are no new assignments going on today but we do have our virtual Garden Tea Party. Eva and I will be having our lunch on our picnic blanket with all our tasty treats. We will upload photos to let you see on the General Channel. Have a super day and can’t wait to see your photos.

Each day I will post some fun assignments for you to complete- there is no obligation to do them all- I just wanted you to have fun things to keep busy with for the last week of school. The closing date for all of these is Wednesday at 4pm. Don’t worry if you don’t get them completed- they will all be on the blog and you can always upload any work to the General Channel if you wish.
